This transaction formalizes the integration of both firms into Andersen Group’s public company structure, enhancing its multidisciplinary platform across Africa’s largest economy.
Nigeria was a key market for Andersen, being among the first African countries the firm entered in 2017. Since then, Andersen in Nigeria has become a cornerstone of the firm’s regional presence, offering tax advisory, transfer pricing, corporate and commercial advisory, regulatory and transactional services, and accounting advisory.
Olaleye Adebiyi, office managing director of Andersen in Nigeria, stated, “Our journey since 2017 has been defined by rapid growth and expanding technical depth to meet the evolving needs of our clients. Becoming part of Andersen Group reinforces our integrated service model and enhances our ability to deliver seamless, multidisciplinary solutions across Nigeria and the broader region.”
Verraki Partners, a Nigerian strategy and technology consulting firm, focuses on enterprise transformation for both private sector and government clients. As a member of Andersen Consulting since its global launch in 2025, Verraki brings capabilities in strategy, digital transformation, performance improvement, and technology modernization, complementing Andersen’s existing services.
Olaniyi Yusuf, managing partner of Verraki, commented, “From the outset, our goal was to help build an integrated consulting platform that delivers measurable impact for clients. Formal integration into Andersen Group enhances coordination across disciplines and geographies, enabling us to better support modernization, resilience, and sustainable growth initiatives.”
Mark L. Vorsatz, global chairman and CEO of Andersen, emphasized Nigeria’s importance, stating, “Nigeria represents one of the most influential and high-growth markets in Africa. Bringing Andersen in Nigeria and Verraki Partners into Andersen Group aligns these leading firms under our U.S.-listed public company structure and strengthens our ability to deliver coordinated, multidisciplinary services across the continent.”
This acquisition deepens Andersen’s investment in Africa and reinforces its commitment to building a globally integrated platform.
